Hi,

This is my submission for Macro Monday November 5th - theme "Intended Contact". I don't think I have to describe this shot - just my door lock shot with a off camera flash and camera on a tripod.

Hope you like it

It was a busy day at the office; I was training people all day. There's nothing like a day of training people to remind yourself what your weakness are when it comes to the job.

Lots of questions and some had to go unanswered, but that's okay because I'll figure out the answers and share the knowledge tomorrow.

I find training people to be exhausting but it's also a great way to figure out what I need to work on, and where to build.

I believe it was Albert Einstein who said "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough." and I agree with this line of thought and strive to follow it when it comes to teaching people.

Hope everyone has had a good day.

Garston Lock sits on the Kennet & Avon canal (or more correctly, the river Kennet navigation) just outside Reading. It was built around 1718 - 1723 by engineer John Hore of Newbury, and is now a scheduled ancient monument. Garston Lock is one of only two remaining turf-sided locks on the Kennet and Avon canal, the other being Monkey Marsh lock at Thatcham. Early locks were often turf-sided as they were quicker and cheaper to build than a full masonry construction, but were eventually superseded by brick sided locks, due to various problems with the turf-sided variety.

A locked portal is one of the oldest ways of keeping an area safe and secure. This lock has been guarding the north-east entrance to a silk factory long after it has been abandoned and forgotten.

Today we drive my eldest, Abbey, back to Bath University. It is her last year, her last term studying for her MSc Hons in Global Development and Sustainability. Abbey's dissertation is "Carbon Bio-absorption in a world of increasing atmospheric CO2 levels. Mitigation using oceanic algae" She will be a world changer. We will miss her greatly and we will not have her home until she has finished her dissertation X

I have often thought that there was a photograph to be made out of the large wooden gates that form the entrance to the Beeston Canal from the River Trent. I felt that a slightly high key treatment might show off the weathered wood and its associated ironwork at it's most attractive from a photographic point of view. After all, they are only functional wooden gates that most normal members of the general public might never look twice at. But as photographers we see the world through photographic eyes and the word 'normal' could never apply to us!
